OMAHA, Neb., May 9.-Lincoln de-
feated Omaha to-day by score of 81 to
IS. O'Leary pitched for the home team,
and opened the game by giving six men
bases on balls. 1t is claimed that
O'Leary is seeking his release by poor
playing. Minneapolis has been bidding
for him for some time, but Omaha re-
fuses to let him go. He is considered
the best pitcher in the Western league,
and last year, playing with Memphis,
stood ahead of all the pitchers in the
Southern league.

be too much for the champions. Best
judges nevertheless believe the Mary

fifth, Duluth and La
Crosse are tied for sixth place, and Eau
Claire has not yet won game, although
it has once or twice come very near to
triumph. The week has developed
several surprises, the greatest of which
was the quartette of straight defeats for
st. Paul. DeS Moines, which, by com
mon consent, was placed near the foot
of the list before the seasons play was
begun, is not many removes from the
front, and is already recognized as a
very dangerous rival for all its COM
petitorS. Minneapolis has done remark
ably well. 1t has been playing away
from home, but i'll spite of the draw
backs of having to travel from town to
town and battle against the enthusiasm
of crowds welded to the home team, it
has won
FOUR OUT OF SIX
games contested, which, considering all
things, is better record than any other
team has made. The three teams which
lead Minneapolis have played all their
games at home. Milwaukee and Osh-
koSh are, as expected, very strong ag-
gregatiOnS. Eau Claire is apparently
badly in need of pitchers, and Duluth is
also weak in the same position. Hol-
acher threw his arm out on Saturday,
and the Zenith City nine now has only
Brynan and Stellberger, the Milwaukee
left-hander, to fall back on. Manager
Lucas has released Barnes and Strouth-
ers and engaged Sexton to play right
field. La Cresse is probably the weak
est team i'll the league, but Manager
and put in better timber in spots. The
st. Paul team has disappointed many of
its admirers, notably those who see no
deeper than the record of runs made by
each team and refuse to excuse defeat
under any circumstances. The nine
has, in fact, done itself proud. 1t has
won three games out of seven, contested
two others for ten innings, and lost an
other by a single score. And it is worth
noting that no one of its competitors has
yet scored
DOUBLE FIGURES.
The team is certainly very strong
one, and it is hoped that the weak men
at short field and second base will soon
begin to play in good form, so that it
Will not be necessary to make changes.
1t has been suggested that Pickett be
played at third and Cleveland at first.
This would doubtless be a move in the
right direction, and would strengthen
BOth positions, as Pickett is good at
picking up grounderS and Cleveland
sure catch on thrown balls. The pitchers
are showing up in fine form. Sowders
is just as good as he ever was, as is at
tested by his striking out eleven of the
Milwaukee heavy hitters yesterday.
Viau is also one of the best. He fooled
eight of the La Crosse players on Sat
urday, and is getting better every day.
McCauley is able to use his left hand to
good effect, and Duryea, if given
chance, will prove splendid pitcher.
He won seven straight games last sum-
mer. 1t is understood that Manager
Barnes does not pitch him much be-
cause he has no catcher that can hold
him. Legg is still suffering slightly
with his eyes, but began playing WITH
the club yesterday. The record to date
is as follows:

A DiAlcult Problem Solved.

The problem Of how to bore an eight
inch hole with q tool that must first pass
through o elk inch opening has been
solved in California, papers Of that state
say. A well 1t Mare Island is now down
1900 feet, and the contract depth Of
1900 feet will be reached in few
weeks. In sinking this well, which il
through rock for q longdistance, only one
line Of casing has been used, and the ap-
parentiy impossible undertaking of drill.
ling u hole larger than the pipe through
which the drill il lowered has been &C.
conplished. In fact, q drill going down
through six inch casing can drill an
eight inch hole, 80 that one size Of casing
tsn be run from the top to the bottom Of
the well. The drill in question is simple
in principle, and in practical use has been
found to do the work expected of it.
In general terms the drill is composed
Of three long pieces, the middle one of
which is movable. When about to be
lowered in the casing the middle piece is
slipped from between the two side pieces,
enabling them to come together, so that,
for instance. they can readily go down a
six inch hole. AS soon as the end of the
casing is passed, however, the natural
spring of the sides allow the middle piece
TO resume its place. and there is formed a
solid tool with an eight inch cutting edge.

There were gaunt, lean, hungry
wretches who hung about the coaches
and snapped at every morsel of food that
was dropped from these coaches with the
avidity and voracity Of hungry dogs.
There was no bone, however clean it
had been picked, that had fallen to the
ground, that was not Immediately strug-
gled for by two or three men. 1t
poisoned every mouthful I took to see
such abject hunger upon every side
watching the fortunate people who had
what was unknown to them-plenty
of food to eat.
l gave two boys who stood near me
the best part of my lunch, and the way
that they bolted everything that was
handed to them showed that they were
actually suffering from hunger. My at
tention was first attracted to them by
their friendship for each other. When
one would find bone or scrap he would
invariably divide it with the other. II
was close partnership in mad hunt
for food. Everything that I handed
down to either one or the other was at
once scrupulously divided. 1t was the
first time I had ever been confronted
with evidence of this tremendous Eng.
fish poverty which have heard SO much
about among certain classes. This in.
creasing and terrible poverty must &C
count for the increasing emigration
There was nothing, was told by ar
English gentleman present, to give bet
ter idea of the unnatural relation Of
things in England than this very picture
represented today. Here was one class
on the tap Of carriages spending money
with a lavish hand, apparently rich ant
certainly careless, having everything
that plenty Of money could give, and tn
other GLASS actually suffering the pang'
of want. The rich In England are very
rich and the poor are poorer than In az!

Mr.. James Russell lowell was the
most conspicuous Of 5frs Phelps callers.
He came in about 8 o'clock with his most
impressive manner. Mr.. Lowell Il looking
quite old, and, although he tries to con-
vey the impression that he Il walking IN
q jaunty, easy manner, 1t is plain to be
seen thst he does not move without an
effort. After shaking hands with Mrs.
Phelps he went around the room looking
for old friends, of whom he found many.
He shakes hands in the latest English
fashion, the fashion which was intro
duced in Washington last winter by Mrs
Helyar, the wife of one of the under
secretaries of the British legation.
This style of hand shaking, ! have no
doubt, is very amusing to the one who
employs it, but it is not an agreeable
sensation to one not prepared for it. The
fingers are tightly grasped by the English
hand shaker, and at the same time no
lifts his elbow on line with his shout
der. He then suddenly brings your
hand close to his breast with jerk, and
then drops it SO quickly that one not
accustomed to this violence is in danger
of losing his balance when the dead drop
follows the energetic jerk. Mr.. Lowell
has this hand shake to perfection; in
fact, I have never seen an Englishmap
who seemed to do the jerk and drop
with such suddenness and dash as does
Mr.. Lowell. / noticed, however, that
in shaking hands with the young girls
and pretty women in the room the drop
did not follow quite SO soon as when
shaking hands with the old dowagers.
He appeared very self-conscious, and
when he entered the room it was
with the air of man who expected tc
create a tremendous sensation. / did
not discover any great commotion, how
ever, over his arrival, although he knew
nearly every one in the room.-Londor

The mistress of the White House
stands in position more trying by far
than that of any crowned sovereign in
Europe. Everything and anything is
expected of her. She must unite all the
qualities that go to make up a thorough
lady: she must pass the ordeal Of hours
Of what may be called public servitude
without betraying the least fatigue or in
hospitality, whether her guests at a
crowded levee come from the wild woods
Or from the most Cosmopolitan center;
she must understand the art of informal
receptions-must be, like foreign royal
ties, gracious, ''condescending" and
''amiable," and at the same time be
thoroughly democratic; otherwise she
will be severely handled by all the
sovereign people" who constitute them
selves her critics. She has not the refuge
Of seclusion or Of divine right which
belongs to q queen; and yet her very
critics demand from her as much as
though she had been born to the purple
and received the training necessary for
the duties of her statioc.-Eppincott's

thoroughly and has IN q large degree
the confidence of the Piegans, has been
told this by a number of the latter.
Kenuerly advised the Piegans to fire"
their northern cousins as quickly as
possible or they would get them into
trouble. If this excellent advice is not
followed out it would be the proper
thing for Major Baldwin o to do the
firing act and see TO it that the
mischievons Bloods make themselves
